Invitation
After Jian Zhaonan left, Boss Wang, who had not been in contact for a long time, suddenly took the initiative to invite him out, and said that several sports school leaders and other famous and well-connected coaches would be present today.
Liu Jianchun knew that Wang was a weasel paying New Year's greetings to a chicken, but the benefits he offered were difficult for her to refuse. Even though she was reluctant, she finally agreed.
She didn't need to dress up to meet her friends in the sports world, but she had been in a bad mood for several days and looked haggard. Looking at her pale self in the mirror, she had to put on some light makeup to cover up her decadent appearance.
Wang Zhixin informed her to arrive at 7:30. In order to show her importance, she arrived at the private room a moment earlier. When she opened the door, she found that the table in the room was full of people, with only one seat next to Xie Yu empty. Only then did she realize that Fatty Wang must have deliberately informed her of the wrong time to make her arrive later than others so as to force her to sit next to Xie Yu.
However, she did not give in to Xie Wang and the others, and moved her chair to the other side. The atmosphere in the room became extremely awkward for a while.
The dinner was arranged by Boss Wang, so it was naturally his responsibility to liven up the atmosphere. Seeing that the atmosphere was freezing, he did not joke with Liu Jianchun, but took the initiative to tease Xie Yu, saying that it was all because Young Master Xie had committed serious sins in the past and was unable to part ways amicably with his ex-girlfriend. It had been two years since the breakup, and his ex-girlfriend was still avoiding him.
When everyone heard that the two were ex-lovers, they were naturally no longer curious about Liu Jianchun's reaction. In addition, everyone changed the topic and talked about the recent competition, and the atmosphere gradually eased.
After a night of casual conversation, Liu Jianchun couldn't say she'd gained nothing. At least she'd added the contact information of several principals. However, there was one man who had been ogling her since she'd walked in, much to her distress. She'd been hesitant to contact her friends, deliberately trying to avoid him, but he hadn't been so understanding and kept pushing her.
The dinner was about to end, and she left before a few other men. As soon as she walked out of the hotel door, she felt someone following her. When she turned around, she saw the face of a middle-aged, fat uncle, which scared her so much that she shuddered.
She was not afraid, but was disgusted by the greasy expression of the man and felt uncomfortable all over.
The other party seemed to be completely unaware of her physical aversion to him. He even moved closer and asked her if she had checked her phone and why she hadn't added him as a friend.
Liu Jianchun was very annoyed, but she didn't say much because she didn't want to hit someone who smiled at her. She could only walk to the side of the road and say that she would get in the car and pass.
The car she called arrived, but the man refused to let her go. He kept clinging to her car door and insisted that she get in before leaving. She was annoyed and was about to agree when the man clinging to the car door was pulled away by the man behind him. She looked up and saw that it was Xie Yu.
Xie Yu didn't say anything, but just gave her a look and asked her to go first. She didn't bother to be polite with Xie Yu and urged the driver to speed up and leave.
As soon as she returned, Wang Zhixin came to apologize to her, saying that it was all his fault that she was harassed, and if she didn't forgive him, his chairman Xie would eat him.
Only then did she remember Xie Yu.
She found Xie Yu's phone number in the blacklist and sent him a text message, saying that she was not that petty and would not fuss over trivial matters, and asked him not to blame Boss Wang.
While editing the message, she saw the message Xie Yu had left her before - he said his father was seriously ill and wanted to see an old friend, and wondered if she was willing to go.
Her typing hand paused.
She didn't want to have anything to do with Xie Yu anymore, but their two families were old friends after all. Xie Yunfei often carried her on his shoulders and took her out to play when they were young. When it really came to the time of life, old age, sickness and death, the emotional disputes between her and Xie Yu seemed to be nothing.
"When is convenient for uncle?" She gritted her teeth and sent the text message.
Not long after, Xie Yu replied to her message: Anytime.
She was a person who liked to cut the Gordian knot, especially when dealing with matters with Xie Yu. Since she had decided to go, it was better to go early than late. She calculated the time and made an appointment with him to visit the day after tomorrow.
The next day, Xie Yu, under the guise of buying her clothes, came to the gym to pick her up for shopping. She wanted to refuse, but couldn't resist his gracious invitation. He said her current attire was too tacky, and if his father saw her, he'd think she'd been tortured by society for the past few years and had become a nobody.
It had to be said that Xie Yu had indeed chosen an excellent time. Jian Zhaonan had moved out, and she had given the students a few days off. The gym was deserted, and even for Liu Jianchun, who had grown accustomed to being single, it felt a bit lonely.
She got into Xie Yu's car reluctantly and went to Chanel with him to buy a set of clothes. With the previous experience, Xie Yu was embarrassed to ask her out for dinner again, so they prepared to go home after leaving the counter.
Although Liu Jianchun and Xie Yu were a single man and a single woman on a date, they always kept a safe distance from each other along the way, without any physical contact. Even if there were paparazzi squatting around to take pictures, they would not be able to capture any intimate shots.
However, when she walked into the parking lot, she ran into Qin Tianyi.
Qin Tianyi didn't know that she had quarreled with Jian Zhaonan. He thought she was out shopping with Jian Zhaonan, so he stopped her and insisted on playing a joke on her. He was stunned until he saw Xie Yu's Bugatti appear.
Liu Jianchun was extremely embarrassed and stood there, not knowing whether he should get in the car.
What's the difference between Xie Yu's car in front of Qin Tianyi and declaring war on Jian Zhaonan?
Fortunately, Xie Yu did not make things difficult for her. He stopped behind her for a while and then drove away, waiting for her at the entrance of the parking lot. She also pretended to be stupid and kept Xie Yu's appearance vague.
Qin Tianyi is not a fool. Even if the two of them did not get intimate in front of him, he would not believe that their simultaneous appearance was a coincidence. He immediately called Jian Zhaonan to report the scandal of Liu Jianchun and Xie Yu's tryst. Unexpectedly, he was neither surprised nor angry when he heard the news.
With a nonchalant attitude.
"Oh, I see."
Qin Tian thought he was slow to react because he couldn't handle the shock, so he angrily yelled into the phone, "What do you mean you know? Go ask Liu Jianchun what she's doing."
The person on the other end of the phone was still very calm: "Why am I asking her? What she does has nothing to do with me..."
Qin Tian was stunned for a moment, and his voice lowered a few degrees: "You and her broke up?"
"It can't be considered a breakup, or rather, we've never really been together."
Perhaps Liu Jianchun didn't understand the depth of Jian Zhaonan's feelings for her, but Qin Tianyi knew it very well. As a man himself, he couldn't help but be moved by Jian Zhaonan's persistence. If there was a girl who loved Liu Jianchun as much as Jian Zhaonan loved her, perhaps he would be moved and willing to stay with her forever.
Qin Tianyi's idea is also very simple. He just hopes that his good brother can get what he wants and find happiness as soon as possible.
But... if the other party doesn't show any favor, no one can force it.
Qin Tianyi offered a few words of comfort, speaking the language of someone who had experienced it before. Seeing Jian Zhaonan's indifference, he stopped talking. After all, only those who wanted to get over a breakup could truly get over it.
"Zhao Nan, I've found out what you asked me to find out. Three of the waiters and chefs at that Japanese restaurant can testify that the food they prepared that day was in accordance with the restaurant's specifications, and that the foods that Sister Jianchun is allergic to were not present. I'll send you the number of another waiter, and she can prove that Xie Yu asked her for help tampering with the food, but she refused."
"Thank you." Jian Zhaonan thought for a moment, "But... Xie Yu should have contacted them a long time ago, right? How can you guarantee that they will help me?"
"His boss's girlfriend and I were classmates when we were studying abroad. If they don't favor you, I will instigate that girl to break up with him."
When he heard about the breakup, Jian Zhaonan's mouth twitched a few times, but he didn't say anything else.
"One more thing."
"you say."
"Xie Yu has another girlfriend."
…
Liu Jianchun didn't know that Qin Tianyi had informed on him, but he was worried all the way, feeling that something was going to happen.
In addition to the main entrance, the stadium also has a side door, which is always locked and only she has the key.
She did not let Xie Yu drive through the main gate, but instead took a detour from another street to the side gate, and she returned to the stadium through the side gate.
What she worried about did not happen. Everything was as usual. The gym was silent except for the sound of bouncing the ball.
She walked to the window and saw that the Bugatti had disappeared from the side door. Only then did she completely relax and go into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Not long after, the sound of bouncing the ball stopped.
From the distant second floor came a voice: "Sister, come and see, is this my brother's car?"
Liu Jianchun put down the kitchen knife in his hand and hurried to the second floor. Looking down, he saw two cars parked at the door, one Bugatti and the other a Land Rover.
Her heart tightened and she almost fainted. She bit her lips and forced herself to stay calm.
We are all adults, and feelings are no longer everything in life. Why can't we sit down and talk it out? Is there any need to tear each other apart over such a small matter?
She silently prayed that the two had simply passed each other by accident, paying no attention at all. She only needed to wait quietly, and the two cars would drive away as if the other didn't exist...
Bugatti took the initiative to move next to the Land Rover, lowered the window, and waved at the other party provocatively with his right hand holding a cigarette.
Jian Zhaonan naturally saw him, but he didn't want to pay attention to this man. He came to find Liu Jianchun, not to quarrel with Xie Yu, the scoundrel.
Xie Yu refused to give in. He stopped the car, walked to the driver's seat of the Land Rover, and knocked on his window continuously. He forced Jian Zhaonan to open the window before he gave up.
As soon as the window was opened, the cigarette that Xie Yu was still smoking floated into the car with the wind, choking Jian Zhaonan and making him frown.
Xie Yu took a deep puff, blowing out smoke rings as he said, "Brother, let me advise you not to be so obsessed with my woman. You're quite capable, and you can have any woman you want. Why does it have to be her?"
Jian Zhaonan suppressed his anger and turned his head away, not only because he didn't want to see him, but also because he disliked the smell of cigarettes on him: "You don't need to worry about it."
